Ian Garry Vows to Make ‘Example’ of Michael Page at UFC 303

Ian Garry is not buying into any of the hype behind Michael Page .

Garry (14-0) and Page (22-2) are slated to trade leather at UFC 303 on June 29 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. It is a high-stakes matchup that could catapult the winner into the conversation for welterweight title contendership.

While rallying for the booking, Page aimed multiple shots and promised to punish Garry in “10 different ways,” also calling out the “fake” online image of the Irishman, who has been a dividing personality since the beginning of his Ultimate Fighting Championship tenure.

Responding to “MVP,” Garry has now declared himself levels above the former Bellator MMA star in every aspect.

“He’s a legend? You said that to line me up… I believe I’m levels above him in every single way, shape and form,” Garry said in an Instagram post. “And this is just an opportunity to show, to prove to people. I go, ‘You guys think this guy’s good? OK: I’ll use him as an example.’”

Page made his promotional debut at UFC 299 this past March, thoroughly outclassing Kevin Holland to earn a unanimous decision win. Meanwhile, Garry is undefeated in seven UFC outings and is coming off a unanimous decision win over Geoff Neal at UFC 298 in February.
